accessing samba $ drives using terminal or file browser?
how can i access the C$ ,D$ , ... of the samba drives ?
Re: accessing samba $ drives using terminal or file browser?
From Linux to Windows, or from Windows to Linux?
If the latter, C$ etc don't exist. If the former, have a look at mounting samba partitions. I.e. Google search for "mount samba"

You must specify a windows administrator account to use $ drive shares. And by the way, administrative shares like C$ were removed from Vista.

Those drive shares aren't accessible to the network. You must manually share the root of each drive (if you really need the whole drive) and mount that instead.

i meant without any administration password or something like that because i don't have the other pc's pass

No pass == No access.

fwiw, admin shares work over my office network just fine. I routinely mount some c$ share from fedora computers without any problems.Kieran Huggins wrote:Those drive shares aren't accessible to the network.
